 * Pictogram voting keep.svg Ready to go, as date and length and hook are all approved. Spanish sources such as elmundo.es look reliable.  Nyttend (talk) 03:32, 26 February 2013 (UTC)


 * Symbol possible vote.svg I have removed this one from the queue as I find the hook uninteresting. There is nothing especially unusual about vision problems manifesting in childhood. Gatoclass (talk) 10:50, 1 March 2013 (UTC)


 * And can you suggest a more interesting hook? Removing from the list of removed because "meh, I find it boring" is not why most articles are on the removed list. You could have addressed that point before it got to the queue. --LauraHale (talk) 11:28, 1 March 2013 (UTC)


 * ALT1: that 2002, 2006 and 2010 Paralympic skier Jon Santacana won three gold medals at the 2013 IPC Alpine Skiing World Championships? --LauraHale (talk) 11:28, 1 March 2013 (UTC)


 * The alt hook looks fine but I am having a little trouble verifying it, as the cited source is in Spanish and I can't see a reference to an "IPC" world championship specifically. Gatoclass (talk) 11:41, 1 March 2013 (UTC)
 * Symbol redirect vote4.png del Campeonato del Mundo de Esquí Alpino Paralímpico = Paralympic Alpine Skiing World Championships. To make it easier for you, I have added a second source in English. Hawkeye7 (talk) 09:05, 11 March 2013 (UTC)
 * Symbol confirmed.svg Two years of college Spanish, don't fail me now! As the IPC = International Paralympic Committee, del Campeonato del Mundo de Esquí Alpino Paralímpico clearly supports this ALT1 hook. OCNative (talk) 21:36, 17 March 2013 (UTC)
